May 7 2008Portal Inspired Beer Stein Is Making Me Thirsty

portal-stein.jpg

This is a Portal inspired beer stein. It costs $15 and was created by a guy named Marc who really liked the game and even sleeps with a companion cube at night and everything. As you can see in the picture, beer is being poured from a tap, entering a blue portal, and then exiting the red portal and filling up a stein. Nothing fancy, just nice and simple. Now before you go off on a tangent about how your penis could make something better, it hasn't, so, yeah. But if it ever does, send it to me and I'll post it. Anyway, I bought one of these to replace my Garfield "I'm not a morning person" coffee mug at work. Except I'm not gonna drink coffee out of it -- I'm gonna drink beer! Sometimes liquor. And if a coworker questions why I smell like the juice I'm gonna stick my foot up the portal to their large intestines*.

*Their b-hole.

way to throw the penis in there, for asecond I thought 1 post was going to not have something related to penii (??) in it.

Even without the portal part it does look like a sweet stein even though it's not quite as manly as the 1L stein I got while in Germany, damn they do beer right

Big deal! I'd drink beer out of a chicken skull if nothing else was available. Come to think of it, I might just do it even if there was an alternative.

By the way, do chickens have skulls?

yes chickens have skulls and to show my geekiness the help file for the sound command from Turbo Pascall back in the day actually discusses a chicken's skull cavity having a resident frequency of 7Hz which was determined when a factory opened not far from a chicken farm and eventually killed all the chickens. The factory was apparently producing a loud enough 7Hz tone to rattle the chickens brains to death.

Beat that for absolutly pointless information

You appear to understand how a portal affects the overall flavor of beer, or to be more percise, how it does not. Beer flavor, a function of hops and temperature, is conserved between portals. In layman's terms, tasty beer goes in, tasty beer comes out.
